AVR Sublime Text plug-in

Prerequisites

• Make sure that you have installed AVR Toolchain and set it in PATH. You can also use the CrossPack or any other AVR Toolchain distribution available.
• In Windows you probably have to install Make as well. Make for Windows is a good option.

Installation via Package Control (recommended)

First make sure that you have a Package Control plug-in installed (version 2.0.0 or later). After then …

• Press CTRL+SHIFT+P, type install and press enter.
• Select AVR from the list and press enter.
• Done.

Manual installation

• Download and unzip, or git clone, the plug-in into Packages/AVR folder. To access the folder called Packages, open Sublime Text and select Preferences, Browse packages…
• Note that the plug-in can't be installed “in the Sublime Text 3 way” in to the Installed Packages folder.

Usage

Press CTRL+SHIFT+P to bring the command palette into view. Next type AVR and select a command which to run:

Create/Update Project

• Prompts the MCU type and directory where to create a new project. After that a template is asked.
• When done you can open the project. To do that select Project, Open projects…, browse to the project folder and open SublimeAVR.sublime-project file.
• In case the given project directory already contains SublimeAVR.sublime-project, the update is applied. Other files aren't touched.

Note:

In Linux SublimeClang needs few extra steps to work. After creating your first project open command-line and cd into SublimeClang package folder. You need to place libclang.so into internals folder:

locate libclang.so
ln -s [location] internals/libclang.so

If libclang.so wasn't found install it via your Linux distrubution's package manager. For example, in Debian use aptitude:

sudo aptitude install libclang-dev

Lastly libcache.so needs to be built:

mkdir -p src/build
cd src/build
cmake ..
make

Shortcut keys

• CTRL+B builds the project
• ALT+D ALT+D goes to the definition of whatever is under the current cursor position
• ALT+D ALT+I goes to the implementation of whatever is under the current cursor position
• ALT+D ALT+B come back to where ever you were before hitting goto the definition or implementation

Settings

To edit plug-in settings select Preferences, Package Settings, AVR. If you don't want to alter the default settings, copy and paste those into the user side for editing.

• c_std and cpp_std: C and C++ standard used when creating the project. These settings have affect to preprocessor define macros saved into SublimeAVR.sublime-project file.
• optimize: Compiler optimization level. Has also affect to preprosessor define macros.
• path: The project PATH environment variable will be prepended by this.
• workdir: Default folder (aka workspace) for new projects.

Templates

Templates are zip-files searched from the templates/ plug-in folder. You can put your own template files there as well and use them via the plug-in. Take a cue from the basic tamplate, which should be included in this plug-in. If you have a good general purpose template, for example for Arduino, I'm happy to merge it into the plug-in.

Troubleshooting

1. SublimeText throws an error Decode error - output not utf-8 when trying to buid.

Open your project's SublimeAVR.sublime-project file and add the following new setting into the build_systems dictionary – right after the selector setting, for example:
“ "encoding”: “cp1252”
